A Season...




You might notice I switched my Facebook profile pic to my kindergarten school picture. Funny thing about that is in that photo, I only weighed 40 lbs. This would eventually lead my parents to take me to the doctor regarding my weight. Let's just say he was a GOOD doctor!!! Hoping that made you laugh. I've actually done that joke on stage, and gotten great laughs, and in some cases they had to think about it too long which ruined the joke.

It was a RAINY Good Friday to say the least. I was going to do my 3 mile walk, but actually cut short after one mile, because the thunder and lighting was really close, and seemed to get worse as I kept going. I am happy to report though I have lost 5 lbs since Monday!! Thank you to all who have encouraged me!

No really big plans for Easter, which is sort of odd, because I've always done something it seems. I noticed yesterday that Dan "The Beast" Severn, UFC Legend is returning to my area next month. I'm excited about attending the show he'll be apart of. Dan is a really awesome guy, and was gracious enough to do a plug for my comedy the last time I met him. It was an honor to hang out with him after the last show, and hear his insight on life, liberty & the pursuit of happiness.

Speaking of which, I've failed to mention this yet, but I made the first round of the World Series of Comedy Competition for Dayton, OH! www.theworldseriesofcomedy.com The competition's finals are actually in Las Vegas. Not sure if I'll make it that far, but it's great for networking, and to potentially get work in comedy clubs. I submitted a video to get picked for the competition, and was fortunate enough to make the top 40 comics for the show at Wiley's Comedy Club. If you're able to make it, I'll be there Wednesday May 4th for the first round performance. It's funny because I only know 3 comedians in the Dayton competition. There's so many entrants from other states coming to perform there.

Still eating healthy. I try not to do it, but I find I get preachy at my family for not eating healthy, when I am eating healthy. Anyone else experience this? Most likely I'll blog tomorrow, but in case some unforeseen reason causes me not to, have a happy Easter!!! God bless!!

Forever In Christ,
